The story behind the famous DOORS presentation video

The first European tour begins in London. The first concerts took place on September 6 and 7, 1968, at the RoundHouse, a popular venue for the English rock scene.

​

John Sheppard greets the musicians at the airport.

​

Robby Krieger, who accompanies the material, advances with a certain nonchalance, he gives his name, his age and his position as a guitarist.

Following him, John Densmore bends to the same exercise with distance, he however takes care to call himself a percussionist rather than a drummer.

Comes the studious Ray Manzarek who details his full name, date of birth and musical duties.

​

Finally Jim Morrison comes forward, stunned, he just says his name is Jim and stares at the camera with a broad smile when asked about his role.
